  1. The Patron Saint of My Parish

    Share Share Post
    Saint John the Baptist is the Patron Saint of this parish. There is a well dedicated to him at Killone. This well is given great credit for its cures. Many people sick, lame and blind who have spent a night there or given rounds went home cured. On the 24 of June, St Paul’s day, and on the 29 of June, Saint Peter, and St Paul’s day people go and make rounds there. There is a lake near it called New Hall lake. Neither Saint John’s parish nor anything in it ever been struck or damaged by lightening.
